Just like it says, I usually don’t give full five stars BUT this deserves it. I purchased 2 of these. I’ve put well over 1K rounds on each the past month. Doing drills and bench shooting. Running them dirty with fresh oil. No issues whatsoever. Machining is superb compared to others that I’ve owned over the past 25 years of competition, and I’m a machinist by trade. Very well done!!!

Always had great luck with JP parts. Triggers in the past. Now this BCG.... it is super light, fast, and runs great after tuning with my hydraulic buffer and a custom ported gas tube (not a fan of adjustable gas blocks). I also own, let's see, 4 JP Enhanced Bolts, 2 of which are custom headspaced to Shilen barrels. Buy with confidence (except I think I got the last one....).

You won't ever go wrong with JP stuff. It's a little pricey, but buy once, cry once. This is well made. Beautiful machining. Try the Silent Captured Spring system also. Optics Planet is the way to go. Fast shipping.

Both are outstanding and butter smooth. Match yours to your use case - it’s very important.
I have a full mass BCG’s in all “must be reliable” rifles. Love them. No complaints and I highly recommend.
I had low mass BCG’s in two rifles, removed them, and swapped them for the JP full mass BCG’s. When sending the bolt forward from the bolt locked to the rear (empty mag / new mag scenario), I was getting a failure to feed or jam 100% of the time with a low mass BCG. The low mass didn’t have enough mass to push the 77gr bullets into the chamber properly is my guess. I also didn’t notice a different in recoil between the low mass and full mass. Regardless I’ll take reliability over possibly improved recoil, so the low masses are getting sold.

This is by far the lightest carrier I have ever used. Typical of JP, build quality is flawless, finish and color perfect, and overall look is a 10. I am using this in a JP billet upper and combined with a Noveske “Navy” 9” barrel in 300blk. I have not put it through it’s paces much as of yet. What I have found in running it is that the hammer on a stock AR trigger assembly will strike the front of the opening in the carrier and cause the finish to crack or break away. This does not seem to happen with a slimmer or reduced weight hammer found in a drop in or aftermarket trigger upgrade. I will be using these in more builds, especially any I do where weight is a concern.
Pros:
- Very light
- excellent color and finish
- high end build quality
Cons:
- Finish can chip in regular use
Would recommend: Yes

I got this because Krieger Barrels will only chamber to a JP bolt. The cut is different than a standard BCG: It will not let the dust cover close unless the BGC is either locked back or fully in battery. It has extra bearing surface to ride in the upper receiver. The parts move with almost no friction.
Pros:
- Superb engineering design, perfect finish, functional
Would recommend: Yes

I have not used this product yet but once I put in in my rifle I hope I will remember to update my review.
My first impression just handling this product is very good. You can easily tell the that this is a high quality bcg. Very smooth in the hands, seems properly staked gas key but I am not a stickler when it comes to that, and in new condition.
